hello everyone,
Sincere apologies if this has been asked before.
Following is my case:
1)Currently on H1b, six years expire on April 2009.
2)140 & 485 concurrently filed on August 2007.
3) Received EAD and AP
4) 485 biometrics test done.
My questions were:
1) it seems from other posts that if I am layed off, my filing gets transferred and all I need to do is file in the addition form AC21(?). In such a scenario, what does my current employer need to do (if anything) to keep the process alive?
2)Is it essential to look for a new job which has the same title as the GC application?
3) Given my H1B expires in a years time, can I transfer my H1B, and keep renewing it with my new employer?
4)Once layed off, how much time does one have in hand to:
a) be in a valid status before one gets to the next job.
b)till when my new employers have to agree on filing AC21?
Appreciate all answers,
Thanks,
